Banner Club of the Year
Recipient Announced
by Joe Pinkerton
Assistant Editor
The Banner, was awarded the prestigious, much coveted, Banner Club of the
Year Award in a long awaited decision
which shocked the entire staff.
"It came as a total surprise," said editor-
in-chief Tom Phillips. "We had been told
we were nominated but the competition
was very stiff. Frankly, I didn't think we
had a chance."
The Banner Club of the Year Award is
an award given by the CBC newspaper,
The Banner, to a deserving club on
campus. This is the first year it has been
awarded and The Banner was considered
a "dark house" candidate by many
involved.
"It was a shock, but we knew we had
friends on the committee," added Phillips,
alluding to the selection committee which
consisted of himself and Joe Pinkerton,
Banner assistant editor. "However, I think
all parties were unprejudiced in their
decision."
The decision was made by a set of
criteria near to that of a similar award
given by the Activities Board. These
guidelines included number of activities,
involvement by the student body, and
work in correlation with other clubs. In a
written statement, the committee defended their decision by noting that The
Banner was published (bi-weekly) which
amounted to a major activity every two
weeks. These activities involved a great
number of the student body as everyone
was aware of each printing of The Banner.
Each club was also welcomed to print any
news in each issue of the paper.
"They clearly won in each category,"
one committee member was heard to say,
"But it was the dedicated, talented staff
which really swayed the committee."
Humor Hits
Campus
"America has lost its sense of humor."
— Doug Manning.
This may be true for America, and it
certainly may be true for CBC. But for one
hilarious night, humor shined with a very
bright light from the BOL.
The source of this illumination — the
Senior Class Variety Show.
The extravaganza ranged from flying
dead chickens, saxophone solos, the
inbibing of a glass of saliva and tooth
paste, to President Al's drooling a foul
brown liquid down his usually preppy
front.
Yes, the show was truly a smashing
success and all those who went were
treated to a good hearty laugh. Those
who didn't go, quite honestly, missed out.
But beyond the laughs, the show gave
students a chance to be themselves, to
gross out or to be grossed out. To just
generally act stupid and have a great time
doing it. Incredibly, this was carried out
without doing anything against "Christian
ethics." But is it really so incredible? Why
does being yourself and letting some of
these inhibitions go to the wind have to
go against your Christian walk. People
need a chance to laugh at themselves and
their little idio syncrecies, and lest we
forget, Jesus was also a man. To all those
involved, thanks for a great show.
Then there was Doug Manning. Again
we had a chance to look at orrselves and
laugh at what we saw. The notice said,
"one of the most unabashedly straightforward people you will ever meet." The
notice was true. Manning told it as it was
with no punches pulled. What one saw
was often funny, sometimes sad, but
always very enlightening.
Once again, those who saw Manning
were treated to an absolutely incredible
speaker who, in his laid back way, delivered some life changing messages. Those
who slept through, showered through, or
talked through these chapel services lost
something that would have benefitted
them for life. Thank you Doug Manning,
wherever you are, (even Hereford).
